Pubertal secretory patterns of gonadotropins in hypergonadotropic patients (Turner syndrome).
Serum gonadotropins in 5 females with Turner syndrome have been evaluated using a 24-hour constant withdrawal pump. A sleep-related increase in gonadotropin levels was documented among patients at an early to midpubertal age but not among older individuals, a phenomenon observed among normal individuals.
